I too have waited a very long time to play this game, I purchased it on release (my birthday), and while I found it a little slow to start with, I now find myself at the mid point in the game completely invested in the story and it's characters. The gameplay is amazing, and without any doubt this is the best looking game on the ps4. Very few games have compelled me to play through them again, however I played through the first game in this series several times, and once I have finished this game I can see myself doing exactly the same. It's a great game, experience, emotional rollercoaster filled with tender moment, heart stopping scares, great action and amazing presentation. It's not going to be for everyone, it can be tough at times, frustrating even, being hunted by a bunch of infected with no supplies is a scenario I have found myself dying in time and time again, but it is rewarding too. In my opinion, and I may be wrong, this is the game PS4 will be remembered for, and I would encourage anybody to at the very least try it. Maybe my opinion will change when the end game credits start to roll, but unless naughty dog have done something seriously wrong with the second half of this game, it's s perfect 10 for me.… Expand

    It is unbelievable the amount of hate this game has gotten, being the MASTERPIECE it is.
    If you want your run-of-the-mill vengeful hero story, look somewhere else. This transcends that...
    The narrative is built in such a way that tries to make you understand the other side of the events. There is no good/evil, no white/black, just a grey messy circle of vengeance that spirals down into chaos.

    WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD
    ***********

    Many people dislike the fact that Joel dies and the way he does. Of course I do, too. But if you were expecting a fairytale where everyone lives happily ever after, then you didn't even understand the ending of the first game.

    I think the main point people who dislike the game are missing is the parallel between Joel and Ellie's story and Abby's story.
    Don't get me wrong, I HATED Abby, but at least I understand the motives behind her actions. I think the game makes a great job putting things into perspective. She isn't just a mindless evil villain, who enjoys killing. She is also a daughter, a friend, a PERSON.
    Imagine she, her friends and her father were the protagonists of the first game. Then we would be rooting for them instead.
    It seems that people missed the similarities between Abby/Lev and Joel/Ellie, too... but I want to keep this review short, so find them yourself ;)

    Speaking of Joel and Ellie, I couldn't have asked for a more perfect way to develop their relationship after the ending of the first game. Those flashback-scenes are truly amazingly crafted tear-jerkers: beautiful, heartwarming and bittersweet.

    ************
    END OF SPOILERS
    ************

    To sum things up and make a point, you should be open minded when playing this game. Don't expect some cliché narrative. Be prepared for some major twists and try to understand them.
    This game is truly an emotional roller coaster.
    The long awaited sequel to Naughty Dog's The Last of Us is a MASTERPIECE that lives up to it's name. PERIOD    … Expand

    Took me a month to finish the game (because you know, work responsibilities).

    Despite the negative reviews, I'd give this game a 10/10. It talks about a lot of important issues, (Ellie being a lesbian for one) but i personally can relate to the Ellie and Joel relationship.

    Worth every peso i spent to get this game at launch

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I grew to love Abbey immensely, I really enjoyed playing as her, I felt her love for her Dad and Owen. I loved her strength.

    It was brutal playing as Ellie in that fight on the beach. I kept just backing away, as I felt that Ellie should realise that they both have lost people that they love, that they are both the same inside, and that all this retaliation is pointless. I guess she did in the end but it should have been before that fight when they were both on their knees. I know Ellie wants that final revenge that Abbey got with Joel, but Ellie forgave Joel (or at least tried to understand him) for stopping the Fireflies from killing her, did Ellie finally also resonate with Abbey's hurt, when it was almost too late? It's all so tough and heartbreaking for them all. I now want to follow Abbey and Lev after they leave on the boat. I'm sad that Abbey can't go and visit Owen in the Aquarium.    … Expand

    this project in my opinion can leave different emotions for everyone. For me, the main plot is not violence that generates even more violence, but revenge that cannot be stopped.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Incredible game, a true masterpiece. Nothing is black and white, every story has multiple sides to it. This game is about ending the cycle of violence and seeing that hurting and taking away other peoples lives and happiness won't help you or bring back the people you've lost, but stopping before you become a true monster will bring back the light you've lost, whether that be through saving others and becoming their family, or realising that you're hurting your family and you need to help yourself and then help them so you can really find peace and happiness together. I also thoroughly enjoyed the gameplay, the stealth aspect of the gameplay is phenomenal, so much fun to do, and there are so many ways through scenarios, whether that be avoiding all together or sneaking or just going full ham. I ended up adoring every single character by the end of it, and really empathised with each one and their individual struggles. Made me laugh, made me sob crying, made me angry, made me feel peace. What an amazing game to do that and put me through all these emotions, especially with hating certain characters, and coming to understand and then love them. This is what games should be about, not trying to do what they know fans will like that would be repetitive, but something truly unique, giving us a new story and a push forward. I havent stopped thinking about it!! Massively reccomend.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There is so much to say about this game. I absolutely loved this game! No matter what the detractors say because they love Joel and Ellie so much, everyone has to admit that the storyline was good because it made you feel some kind of way when situations happened to the characters and THAT is what makes the game good! At first I was rooting for Ellie and Joel and when it cane time to play as Abby I literally was thinking to myself “well screw her! I’m just gonna play her and do the minimum!”. I couldn’t stand her at first, but then I started seeing all that she had gone through in the game, why she did the things she did and started realizing, hey she does have a heart and NO she didn’t kill Joel for no apparent reason whatsoever! The only scientist/doctor (that anyone was aware of) that could potentially create a vaccine and save humanity is dead because of Joel! I don’t think people really let that sink in because they want to marry Joel and Ellie so bad. The characters Joel and Ellie were good people in their own way, but Abby was good in her own way as well. It just takes seeing things from another person’s shoes rather than your own selfish viewpoint just because Joel was killed. There wouldn’t be a story if everyone lived. There wouldn’t be dialogue between people about the game either. What would there be? Bigger monsters and tiptoeing through the tulips? Come on people! Abby was after the cause of her pain and sorrow. She didn’t want anybody dead but him, she could have killed Ellie as well, but she didn’t because Ellie wasn’t the source of her distress. It was Joel. No one can tell me they would have done things differently if they were in her shoes! Most people would’ve prolly killed Ellie too, but Abby showed her humanity and it’s wild to me how people didn’t see it! The last fight was brutal and over the top and it showed me that Ellie was kind of crazed during the fight. Abby only fought Ellie to save this teenage boys life. She didn’t even want to do it! Ellie didn’t give two licks. Her humanity was nearly gone. She didn’t care what was going on around her, she only saw one thing and that was to see Abby dead. In the end people really need to play the game in its entirety, PROCESS what happened (if they can’t while playing) and then write a review. Don’t write a review based on love for characters in the last game. Don’t write a review when you haven’t completed the game or based off leaks. I’m only saying this because I know someone who has an opinion opposite mine that hasn’t played the game and thank goodness they didn’t write a review just because of things they seen in leaks and reviews from people who haven’t played.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Я в восторге. Игра с самого старта заставляет нас выйти из зоны комфорта, улизнуть не получится. Двигаясь по сюжету, испытываешь весь спектр эмоций: от ненависти и страха до любви и бесстрашия. Разработчики ловко играют на наших чувствах: сперва заставляя возненавидеть одних героев и полюбить других, приглашая затем взглянуть на ситуацию с обратной стороны. Здесь нет антагонистов и протагонистов, каждый в итоге решает сам для себя, кто ему ближе и понятнее. Понятно лишь одно: ненависть порождает ненависть.
    Игра окунает нас в уже полюбившийся всем нам мир после катастрофы, мир, где на каждом шагу подстерегает смертельная опасность. Дьявол в мелочах. Каждая локация уникальна, интересна, со своей историей. Окружение настолько детализировано, что можно надолго залипнуть, разглядывая семейные фотографии, книги, брошенные детские игрушки. В каждой новой комнате нас ожидает сюрприз. Пробежать игру по сюжету, не обратив на всё это внимание - непростительная оплошность. Игра отлично оптимизирована: огромный мир и отличнейшая графика без единого намёка на проседания. Для Playstation 4 FAT первой ревизии - это отличный результат.

This game has improved upon the first in terms of
    game play, graphics, and all the technical aspects (voice acting and music and phenomenal) but this game also manages to deliver another amazing story with compelling characters and interesting moral dilemmas. Naughty Dog really knows how to make amazing characters and this game proves it and the naysayers are just mad that the story didn't go the way they wanted and that instead it tells a darker, messier, and ultimately better story than just your run of the mill revenge story.

    A masterpiece of emotional storytelling and character development. It's dark, and at times hurtful.

    The best games I've played for years for two main reasons.

    Firstly, the story is deep and complex and draws you in, making you feel emotions and develop opinions, only to completely change your mind. The way that the story twists and turns as well as the topics covered, really helps make the story feel real. Secondly, the game mechanics are amazing, and even develop throughout the game.

    Secondly, the game mechanics are amazing, and even develop throughout the game. The way sound echoes in different environments, ice cracks when you walk across it and how snow falls from the trees as you brush past them results in one of the most immersive game experiences I've ever had (I recommend playing with headphones). The puzzle based mechanics are also fantastic, but don't get overused, for example, early in the game they introduce a cable puzzle (with great rope physics), but this is only used a few times, so if doesn't get boring and throughout the game more of these kind of mechanics are introduced.

This is a ride on a rollercoaster.
    The graphics are insane, facial expression and AI is top notch. Just one eye candy after another.

    I think over time this game will receive it's justified recognition when I remember a game like Metal Gear Solid 2 where people were upset that you aint going to play as Solid Snake. But in the end, it ends up being one of the best if not the best part of the series.

    This game is heartbreaking. And at the same time it is hauntingly beautiful. It is a game that you don't just play, and leap on to the next game in your backlog. It's a game that you'll play and that you'll keep thinking about afterwards. Don't go looking for spoilers, and go in open minded. A strong contender for game of the generation in my case.

This is a revolutionary game that changes the way story driven games can be told and is through the best ever story driven game of all time. I will take that to my grave.

In a world like this, it would be highly unrealistic. This game carries mature and heavy themes, so it is understandable why it wasn't made for everyone. For those pressed about what happens in the beginning that sets the plot for the rest of the game- how else would you have told this story? Naughty Dog acknowledges the brutality of killing off this loved character, and wants the audience to feel just like Ellie- someone who just lost their father. Others are mad at the "poor writing", but the four complex timelines the game carries is highly difficult and ballsy to pull off. Having to "walk a mile" for the character you truly hate has the purpose to really test the player's bias and morals. The ending did trigger many people- a plot of revenge doesn't end in revenge. But what about the first game? The plot of "saving humanity" didn't end in that. Plot and stories are different. Plot: finding the cure of humanity, story: relationship between Ellie and Joel. Plot: revenge, story: grief and forgiveness. If you walk away still wanting Abby dead, you may have completed the game but not with your soul. Yes this game is emotionally draining, but it reflects the sad truth about our reality- how unstructured and animal-like society would become in a world like this.… Expand

    The first game stuck with me for a long time thanks to the actions of the characters in the game being very difficult to reconcile morally. It felt like it didn't try to make the protagonists into heroes, they were simply humans reacting to their experiences, needs, and environment. We were just observing the character's story, we were never supposed to feel like Joel or Ellie, only understand them and, when we wanted to, empathize with them. The sequel expands on this idea unapologetically, there are no heroes and villains, just a selection of humans reacting to their experiences in a complicated world. Last of us part 2 is not the player's story.

    The game is consistently uncomfortable to play, there is an overbearing sense of oppression throughout with only the smallest respites and I love it for this. This is a game that truly makes you feel. I found myself needing to take regular breaks every 3 hours or so just to decompress but this is in no way a criticism, it wouldn't have been the same experience otherwise, the tension was everpresent and palpable in a way a game has never made me feel before.

    I found the characters in this game to be so well realized that, even in the moments that made me the most uncomfortable or fearful, at no point did any of their actions feel surprising or shocking. Every action felt like the next inevitable step given who and where they were in that moment which often made these moments even more resonant; having to see characters I have loved on the path they were hopelessly trapped on.

    After finishing the game and finally letting myself read some reviews I was amazed to see such negativity about the characters. Having watched a few playthroughs from reviewers who did not rate the game highly I suspect a lot of the reactions are from how uncomfortable it can be to be taken on the journey of the story. I've seen a number of reviewers who slated the game for its character decisions but were having a genuine emotional response to character actions throughout their playthroughs, often pleading with the characters before they have even done anything just from the presumption of what is going to happen next. I would argue that if you can feel what character is going to do that consistently then the actions are pretty true to the character even if it's not what you might have hoped for them in 2013 when finishing part 1.

    The characters we loved from the first game are made by the world they are in, if we don't allow this world to affect them then the character traits we love are nonsensical. I do think that a lot of these negative opinions may change in a year once people have had time to process the game in their minds, I have already started to see people do this almost as if they were going through the stages of grief which shows how strong an emotional response naughty dog has been able to create with their storytelling.

    There is no denying the game is bleak, the hope you experience for the majority of the original is absent however the original was never really about getting the save the world cure and a happy ending; it was about the characters. Last of us 2 is an experience, I don't believe it is trying to feed you a message or teach you about morals or perspective, all it is trying to do is show you the characters' stories, for the stories to be true to the character, the experiences they are having and fundamentally the fact that they are human. In this aim Last of is faultless.

    I cannot recommend this game enough, I believe it is a unique achievement in storytelling in a game. The visuals and gameplay are highly polished and do a seamless job of staying out of the way of the story, never distracting from the journey. The last of us part 2 is a tough play for sure, but an incredibly rewarding experience, one that shouldn't be missed and will last in your mind for a long while once the credits have rolled.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. In a modern world full of stories of good versus evil and happily ever afters, naughty dog took a risk by telling a story where people make bad decisions, their actions have consequences, and most things end tragically. This risk cost them the respect of many fans who couldn't accept the decisions naughty dog made, but for people who kept an open mind and attempted to understand the themes they were trying to convey, the result was a thought provoking and life changing experience. I understand why other people hate this game. If you wanted to have fun, if you wanted a happy ending, if you wanted to watch Joel and Ellie's bond, then this was not the game you wanted.

    I find it stupid that people think Neil Druckman is a bad writer because they didn't like the direction he chose to take. He's the same guy that made the first game that everyone loved so much. He could've easily made a game that revolved mostly around the story told in Ellie's flashbacks, then throw some gameplay in between, the voila, you have another story of Ellie and Joel's relationship, drama, and bonding. Joel would still be alive, Abby wouldn't exist, and everyone would've loved it. That's not the game they wanted to tell. This game was not meant to be a fanservice. This was meant to be a dark, depressing experience to display the grief, anger, violence, and horror that comes from hatred and revenge.

    The part that is funny to me is that the writers played with our emotions almost too well, to the point where people hate the game. If you felt angry at Joel's death and couldn't accept it, good, that's exactly how Ellie felt. Did you hate Abby's guts and want to see her dead? Well naughty dog came out and said that's how they wanted you to feel. Unfortunately that's where most people stopped caring. If you stopped to pay attention to the story that was being told you would've realized that Abby's character was almost identical to Joel's. Two people who lost loved ones at the beginning of their stories, went down a dark path of violence, but began to regain their humanity thanks to their desire to care for a child. The reason why we hate one and love the other is the perspective we are given. We played a whole game as Joel, but Abby is introduced murdering our favorite character. However if the first game revolved around Abby and her father, with the ending being her father's death, we would've cheered as Abby beat Joel's head in.

    The cycle of violence and revenge was passed from Joel to Abby to Ellie, and I was so glad that at the end Ellie decided to break the chain. If Ellie killed Abby it would've continued with Lev seeking revenge against Ellie. I believe Ellie is the true hero of this story, and if she had carried out her vengeance she would've failed to rise above the hate just like Abby and Joel, and she wouldn't have been able to find peace. On the surface the ending does seem like Ellie just gave up and lost everything, but Ellie's story revolves mostly around her learning to forgive, and she took the first step towards being able to do that. During the game Ellie shows how much her own violent actions affect her mental state. Would Ellie ever find happiness if she killed Abby? Possibly, but it would've been that much harder. The game ends badly for Ellie, but because she spared Abby I believe there is still a shred of hope for her.

    Overall I think that the creators of this game couldn't have done a better job on telling the story they wanted us to hear. People can love or hate them for that, but I for one think this game is an absolute masterpiece of storytelling, character development, graphics, acting, animation, lighting, and music. I look forward to a third installment to the series.    … Expand

    Visually this game is stunning. Everything from the level design to character redevelopment is just fantastic. The story was phenominal in every way possible. It was in my opinion the perfect sequal. I have never felt so overwhelmed and exhausted (in a good way) playing a game before. I was so heartbroken and angry when Joel died. Felt so betrayed and felt myself shaking my head at Ellie choosing revenge over Dina and JJ. I found myself disagreeing with Ellies choices and disliking her, a character I had held so close to my heart, someone I saw so much of myself in. I felt sympathy and love for abby and wishing for neither to die at the hand of the other. The only criticism I have is the open ending. I feel so much more could be explored in this world so much more of Ellies and Abbys journeys have been left untold. Please Naughty dog please make a third installment. Please!!!!

No spoilers ahead...

    Trans Character(s): I've seen some comments about this game being transphobic. That is absolutely false. Having trans representation does not equal transphobia.

    Ellie and Joel: This seems to be the main reason cited for the hate. Alright, people are complex. Way, way more complex than mainstream videogame narratives will have you believe. They aren't just 'good' or 'bad'. Last of Us 2 recognizes this aspect and uses it to tell an overarching story. The game isn't about Ellie or Joel. It's about Ellie and Joel AND the people around them. It introduces a lot of amazing new characters like Dina, Jessie, Abby etc, who all feel like full-fledged, often lovable characters in their own right. Every character's actions feel well-motivated.

    Women (Ellie and Abby): Another stupid argument I keep seeing being made is that Ellie and Abby are too much like 'men' and not 'feminine enough'. Sure, I myself feel that we need more emotionally complex women in games that aren't just your typical, patriarchy-friendly 'strong woman' tropes. But the Last of Us is set in uhh.... a zombie apocalypse! Are there going to be strong women in such a world? HECK YEAH. The game has 'less masculine' women too! Dina is an absolutely wonderful character and probably my favorite in the whole game. Her strength is in her emotional maturity, which is something Ellie severely lacks.

    Game mechanics: This is a Naughty Dog game, so you know what you're in for. You either ADORE it or like it. The other reviews have talked about this already.

    TLDR; Don't go in feeling entitled to a certain kind of story, and you'll be fine. The story is realistic, so are all the characters and their motivations. Flawed characters =/= bad storytelling, quite the opposite.    … Expand

    I do not give this a 10 lightly, I’ve just played TLOU remastered and then TLOU Part 2 back to back after a friend desperately tired to convince me to do so, after years of me saying “meh”.

    This game sucked me in to its narrative, And challenged me with its epic gameplay mechanics I think this may be the greatest game I’ve every played.

    The Last of Us Part II is the high point of the PlayStation 4. The plot is controversial, but the game is the incredibly addictive adventure of Ellie, from which it is impossible to pull away from the opening and to the very end.

    Not everyone is going to enjoy the motives of The Last of Us Part II. But if you try and manage to accept the subliminal and not so subtle messages as a fact that the world has gone awry and that people have the need to have somewhere or someone to belong to as their own way out, then... You will witness the boundaries of gaming expand. You will witness a true masterpiece.

    If you loved the original for its great characters and well-paced story – stay away from this game. However, if you’re aching to sink into the depths of depression, or just want to cut some throats and burn some zombies – Part II will deliver. [Issue#247, p.72]
